Litigation

Litigation, real or threatened, poses significant risks to lenders, including the five primary risks identified by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency:  liquidity risk, reputation risk, strategic risk, credit risk and compliance risk.

Whether the issues presented by these risks give rise to unenforceable contracts, lawsuits, adverse judgments, lost business opportunities, loss of corporate focus or diminished reputation in the community, KRCL understands these risks and also understands the need to manage the risks.

KRCL’s Financial Services Practice Group provides comprehensive litigation and dispute services to banks and other financial services companies.  We routinely assist clients in a variety of matters, including general operations, material defensive litigation, and credit risk management.  Some specific areas are mentioned below:

  • Defensive litigation, including securities fraud, fiduciary duties, mortgage lending practices, and consumer class actions.
  • Employment litigation, including securities-related arbitrations, defense of EEOC related inquiries, enforcement and defense of non-competition provisions and defense of any employment discrimination litigation matters.
  • General bank operations, with emphasis on claims under Articles 3 (negotiable instruments), 4 (deposits and collections), and 4A (funds transfers) of the Uniform Commercial Code.
  • Lender liability defense, including claims arising from non-disbursement of loan funds, termination of credit facilities, charging default rates, legality of fees and charges, refusing to extend loans, purported oral loan commitments, and rejecting loan payments after default.
  • Statutory and regulatory compliance litigation, including the anti-tying provisions of the Bank Holding Company Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Truth in Lending Act and Regulation Z, usury under the National Bank Act and State laws, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, and CERCLA.
  • Inter-bank liability, including the resolution of disputes between agents, participants, and syndicate members.

Insolvency and Creditor Rights

With a solid understanding of what it takes to effectively resolve troubled debtor-creditor relationships, KRCL will find a way to achieve client goals in what is often an extremely hostile, complex and litigious environment.
